very beautiful pond set up, u may have some shelter which have pole support on the side of the pond itself and not onto the wall structure.

wish I could have 1 some day :rolleyes:

this will be my dream pond

Thanks for sharing a great-looking pond.
I like the color theme of dark wood and white base very much.
Congrats! It is a very inspiring share.

However, I do have some concerns:
- Hope the paint for the weights is safe for the fish...
- For fogging issues, perhaps put in some super activated carbon on those fogging days?
- I worry about the net, as fins can get stuck/tangled. The affected fish may be rendered immobile and may drown (I've had the unfortunate experience of my dear pictus cat drowning in a similar way).

Hope to view any updates, and thanks for sharing again.

Thanks all the bro for the likes and UP.

I think the paint should be alright.
Will get the activated carbon if there is a need. Thanks for the advise.
So far the net is ok... I will see how it goes.

After few weeks of turning OFF my UV, the algae grows as expected. To my surprise, my wife loves the sight of these algae as she said it looks more natural than the white base. I just hope that the algae will finally grow throughout, covering the whole base and not patches as in the below pics. Else I might consider changing the base using green colour tiles. And hopefully there will be no blue algae growing. Any advise?

Sharing below some pics that I had just taken. Haha... I know some bros will be mocking at me for allowing the algae grows... I think I am happy with it, so just let it be... Who knows, maybe I will be clearing the algae very soon... Lol. Cheers!
